Be A Doll
People always say how much you look like your dad, but you
know what looks even MORE like your dad? An action figure
... of your dad! Bringing real people to figurine form, Be A
Doll.
Started by a Chicago area woman who launched her business
after a YouTube video of a doll she made for a friend
prompted additional orders, BAD crafts eerily realistic
dolls (which you'll assure your friends are action figures)
modeled after yourself, your loved ones, or your sworn
enemies, because building an effigy yourself is SO time
consuming! To get the process rolling she needs a quality
hi-res, up-close pic of your grill from the front and a
profile (a video pan of said grill will also suffice) from
which she will painstakingly sculpt a detailed head to be
perched upon a slim 11" vinyl body, leaving you with Ken's
rock hard physique, and rock soft neuteredness. Once your
bod is set, she'll accessorize you in any manner you see fit
-- most people pick stuff they'd normally wear but if you
want tights and a cape, so be it -- and ship the mini-you
(or whoever) off; the process takes 2-3 weeks, but if
there's heavy traffic in front of you the wait may be
longer, so it looks like Your Buddy and you will be getting
a little more quality time.
If you're in more of an instant gratification mood, there
are a couple of celebrity dolls available for immediate
purchase, including noted Brazillian actress Danielle Perez
(obvi) and recently deceased (did you hear?) King of Pop
Michael Jackson, who, when rendered in doll form, also looks
like your dad, assuming your dad looks exactly like Diana Ross.
